trubblemaker said: "I also should note that my laptop has a software controlled RF switch; to turn on the wireless radio requires a special kernel module (av5100). Is it possible that the laptops experiencing this problem require some software to turn them back on? Apparently, it would seem as though the Bios (acpi) is disabling the touchpad purposely. Otherwise, if it is a linux kernel issue, why aren't all laptops affected?"
The Gateway notebook that this bug was originally filed for used a software switch to control the WiFi, so I wouldn't think that the problem should be related to that. The motherboard chipset was an Intel 915G, not sure if that could be related or not. -- Synaptics touchpad ceases functioning after suspend and resume. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
